Kevin Clifton's ex Karen Clifton marks ‘pretty special’ moment with new man David Webb

Karen Clifton, 37, a professional dancer on Strictly Come Dancing, was previously married to her co-star Kevin Clifton, 36, before the pair split after three years together. The Venezuelan beauty has since been dating opera singer David Webb and the pair regularly update fans with sweet snaps of their blossoming romance. Last night was no different when the singer took to Instagram to gush over the Strictly performer in a heartwarming post. Sharing a snap of Karen with her arms wrapped around him, the pair beamed at the camera.

She looked stunning in a Disney inspired diamond encrusted gown as David rocked an all black smart suit.

In view of his 5,078 followers, David captioned the post: “Sharing the stage with this one for the first time was pretty special…”

Fans flocked to comment on the post, as one person said simply: “Beautiful couple.”

Another person gushed: “Beautiful photo,” while another person added: “Just great.”

The pair are currently taking part in the Strictly Come Dancing P&O Cruise where some of the BBC professionals perform live on stage for guests.

Their appearance on the cruise last night was the first time Karen and David performed together on stage.

He later shared a moment of the pair together whilst he sang on stage.

Karen could be seen performing alongside her dance partner Patrick Helm as the pair wowed with an emotional number.

The Strictly star also took to the picture-sharing site to gush over the big moment.

In a short video clip, the dancer could be seen joking around and singing with her co-stars which included Strictly dancer Janette Manrara as they geared up for their performance.

David filmed the group, before he panned the camera towards himself and said: “And that was the vocal warm up.”

In view of her 165,000 followers, Karen captioned the clip: “Had the best time performing with these super talented, funny and beautiful people. @davidpwebb @lubamushtuk @jmanrara @robbiekmetoni @patrickhelm @kaiwidd.

“Love you guys #backstage #shenanigans #dancers #strictlycomedancing #warmup.”

It comes after her former husband Kevin Clifton recently broke his silence on his rumoured romance with Strictly champion Stacey Dooley, 32.

In an appearance on This Morning he addressed his relationship with the documentary-filmmaker.

Host Ruth Langsford asked: “And how are things with Stacey?”

To which he replied: “Yes, all good, yes,” before looking over at sister Joanne Clifton, joking: “Look at this, straight into the personal life.”
